PS3C - Relationship Between Energy and Forces
Guided Notes
3 key concepts
- 1
When objects are touching, there is an electromagnetic force between them, and as one slides on top of the other, it generates a frictional force.
- 2
Objects don't have to be touching to exert forces due to gravitational, magnetic, or electric fields.
- 3
When two objects interact, each exerts a force on the other that can cause energy to be transferred.
